APICOECTOMY:-If your dentist is recommending an apicoectomy, it means that your tooth cannot be successfully treated with conventional root canal treatment.

An apicoectomy is a minor surgical procedure in which the very tip of the tooth’s root is removed and sealed. It is usually performed by an endodontist (“endo” – inside; “dont” – tooth), a dentist who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of tooth pain from root canal disease.
